Location consistently several yards off map trail esp compared to Gaia which is spot on. location photos save to multiple new folders. needs a lot of tweaking. I use it cause the FS wants me to but often have to compare with Gaia. Maps are expensive for what you get, including absent trails, roads, trailhead names and incorrect locations.

I have been using this app for years now. I got digital maps from Colorado parks and wildlife and I put them in dropbox, then download what I need each hunting season. It puts me right on the map where I am so I know that I'm not on private land and I can't get lost. No cell service is necessary which is good in the mountains. Wonderful clear map and I can blow it up big with a squeeze of a finger. I can mark a dot on the map for anything I want to return to and I can follow my tracks. Perfect.

The Sterling Forest (Map 100) started acting up, does not hold GPS location. I am in a certain location and the blue dot is stuck in a completely different location with a big blue halo circle around the blue dot. This started happening a few weeks ago, this map worked great for years, don't know how they screwed it up with the last software update, but that seems to be the case. I have un-installed it and reinstalled it, same issue. G. maps works fine, which means my GPS works fine on my phone.
